Spring 2020 Seminar Series
PPSM sponsors a series of seminars covering a broad range of topics of general interest to the polymer community, featuring speakers from both on and off campus. We invite the polymer community at MIT and elsewhere to participate. For further information, contact Professor Niels Holten-Andersen at holten@mit.edu.
All talks take place on Wednesdays
If you would like to receive Tuesday and Wednesday email announcements of the next upcoming PPSM seminar, please email your request including your email address to: ppsm-seminar-admin@mit.edu
SPRING 2020 PPSM SEMINAR SERIES SUSPENDED
Starting with our March 18th event, due to COVID-19 concerns all remaining PPSM Seminars and the April 8th MIT Polymer Day event have been cancelled.
We regret this unfortunate necessity but look forward to presenting a full calendar of exciting guest speakers in Fall 2020 (including as many as possible of the three cancelled Spring 2020 speakers), after the current public health crisis subsides.
AUGUST 2020 UPDATE:
MIT Polymer Day will not be held in 2020, but will instead be held either in a live in person format, or in a Virtual format in April or March 2021 (date TBA). Choice of format will be contingent upon prevailing COVID 19 conditions on February 1st, 2021.
